Apparently today is Roger Keith "Syd" Barrett's 60th birthday. His nephew contributes to the Cope forum on a fairly regular basis, and I thought a few people here might be interested in his message today... I have sent Roger a card and will send him vibes from you all. I know he is pretty well at the moment. my Parents visited him a month or so ago and he was in good health and content. It's lovely to know you have such affection for him Keith np Love Bites - Buzzcocks ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2006 12:05:38 -0000 From: "Keith A" Subject: Re: [idealcopy] My (Keith A's) End of Year Lists... > They Are is Newman's worst ever > > song, > > I remember similar disdain in your review a while back Keith and being > somewhat taken aback. It's the most played track on the album for me - an > excellent track. Worst ever song? Crikey! Interesting. I was wondering what other folk here thought of it. I just find it irritating and by the time he's sang they are this and they are that, for several minutes I just want to say, "Look Colin, mate. I'm a big fan of yours. But I don't give a fuck what they are. Let it go!" ; ) OK. Maybe it's just me then... ; ) > As regards the Tarwater album, I put this on my Christmas list (reviewed and > acted upon by a reduced constituency at the moment) but missed out. Recently bought Dwellers on the Threshold. Not their best by any menas, but I do like this band a lot.

Fripp, who has been at the forefront of electronic guitar composition for more than 35 years, first using analog tape delays, then with digital effects. He infused his unique brand of Frippertronics on the MS crowd. The Channel 9 site has posted a 25 minute video, chronicalling the event. Now I guess I finally have a reason to leave the default Windows sounds enabled." I think the Channel 9 site may be http://www.kcts.org Cheers, Paul ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2006 10:14:00 -0800 From: "Paul Pietromonaco" Subject: Re: [idealcopy] [OT] Robert Fripp to compose Vista's soundtrack > The Channel 9 site has posted a 25 minute > video, chronicalling the event.
